The “Conversations with Dead People” goody gets its namesake from the season seven “Buffy” episode. The game board comes with a planchette and instructions with art by “Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight” guest artist Paul Lee.

The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Tarot Deck comes from Rachel Pollack, the tarot genius behind “78 Degrees of Wisdom” for those interested. Paul Lee does the art honors for the 78-card working deck with references to all eight seasons of “Buffy.”

So would I play with these in the dead of night with my best buds? Not unless Buffy and Faith showed up with s’mores and pillows. Then I’d be really tempted. Of course, I’d also be really insane. In which case talking with the dead and shuffling tarot cards might actually be an improvement.
